Hyderabad: Using filter paper, scientists at the Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB) have developed a viscometer to measure the viscosity of fluids like blood, saliva, urine and proteins ...

The term “Nanofluids” was first proposed by Choi of Argonne National Laboratory USA in 1995, which meant nanoparticle fluid suspensions. After which, this interdisciplinary field has developed ...

Fault zones play a key role in shaping the deformation of the Earth's crust. All of these zones contain fluids, which heavily influence how earthquakes propagate. In an article published today in ...

Scientists have demonstrated that the viscosity of fluids present in faults has a direct effect on the intensity of earthquakes. Fault zones play a key role in shaping the deformation of the Earth's ...

This article explores viscosity terms and definitions, unraveling the intricacies of fluid behavior. Absolute Viscosity - The force required for a liquid to overcome its internal friction and commence ...

Fundamental constants: a minimum value of viscosity has been calculated by Kostya Trachenko and Vadim Brazhkin (Courtesy: iStock/3quarks). Viscosity is an everyday phenomenon recognizable in the ...

If you mix cornstarch and water in the right proportions, you get “oobleck”: something that seems not-quite-liquid but also not-quite-solid. Oobleck flows and settles like a liquid when untouched, but ...
